On Friday night, Deportivo La Coruna host Espanyol at the Riazor in La Liga, as the home side look to enhance their chances of survival.
Deportivo’s recent form has been woeful, as the team from La Coruna have failed to win in nine La Liga games, suffering seven defeats in the process. To make matters worse the home side have conceded two or more goals in six of their last nine matches in the Spanish top-flight.
Last time out, Clarence Seedorf’s side suffered a 1-0 defeat at Alaves, which leaves them 19th place in the table and three points off safety.
Depor’s home record in La Liga is not great of late either, as they have won just one of their last eight games on home soil in the Spanish top-flight, suffering five defeats in the process. Depor have also conceded two or more goals in five of their last eight home games in La Liga.
Espanyol heads into this game 16th place in La Liga , nine points above the relegation zone. Quique Sanchez Flores’ side have failed to win in their last six games in the league, but have drawn their last three La Liga games. Last time out the visitors picked up a 1-1 draw against Villarreal.
Espanyol’s recent games have been tight in La Liga, with both teams scoring in five of their last six outings in the Spanish top-flight.
The visitors have a poor recent away record in La Liga, winning just one of their last 11 games on their travels in the Spanish top-flight. Their recent away games in La Liga have been high scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in four of their last five away games on their travels.
Forebet predicts that Deportivo’s recent winless run will continue, but they will at least pick up a point from this clash with the game finishing all square.
